Line 105:
** A webcomic where just about ''anything'' can happen (so long as it's PG-13) that runs the gamut of every genre imaginable without ever losing the humor and endearing characters at its core. Plus the thing's so frickin' huge that, by the time you finish your [[Archive Trawl]], you'll be ready to go back and re-read your old favorites again.
* ''[http://www.no4thwall.com No Fourth Wall to Break]''. Like ''[[1/0]]'' without the [[Cerebus Syndrome]]. Cut down in the prime of life by [[Schedule Slip]]. Ah, well. Things could always be worse. Like, what if you were covered in bees? That'd be pretty bad.
* [[Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal]] and [[Cyanide
** [[Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal]] is the only comic that makes me actually laugh out loud on every page. Xkcd doesn't even come close to making me laugh out loud. Nor does [[Penny Arcade]], and I'm a gamer.
* ''[http://www.reasonablyclever.com/ Reasonably Clever]''. How many webcomics can you name that start with an asteroid hurtling towards Earth, then manages to work in a Mario Batali robot, The Matrix, a Doctor Who spinoff who is a Chilli chef, an entire organization of Red Herrings, Tony Stark, Advent Calendars (TWICE!), and cosplaying as Wash from Firefly during a [[Zombie Apocalypse]] as part of a semi-recognizable plot, and be made entirely from legos?
Line 137:
* [[A Softer World]] is the best argument for the continued existence of mankind.
* [http://felonia.free.fr/mspfa/?s=132&p=1 A Beginner's Guide to the End of the Universe]: an [[Interactive Comic]] that begins with a ''[[Myst]]''-reminiscent [[Ontological Mystery]] and develops into something quite unique and strangely compelling. The stick-figure-and-greyscale-clip-art style complements the surreal nature of the comic perfectly as you set out to explore a world of chilling desolation and inexplicably malevolent void creatures... and that's only the beginning.
* ''[[Goblins]]'': What starts off as a run-of-the-mill [[Dungeons
* [[The Dragon Doctors]]. Admittedly, it doesn't have the best arc, but the story completely makes up for it. What starts out looking like a standard [[Transformation Comic]] really starts to get going during the Mr. Smith arc. Every [[Plot Hole]] can be beliavably explained, every character is human enough to be relatable bespite the fantastic setting, and there are several awesome moments to boot.
* ''[[Axe Cop]]'' is written by a 6-year-old. And it is awesome.
Line 146:
* See, [[Tropers/Wragnaroq R Maggeddon|I]] know I really shouldn't, but I just have to recommend [[Ansem Retort]]. Yes, it's [[Dead Baby Comedy]] at it's finest. Yes, you can feel yourself getting a bit closer to hell every time you laugh. Yes, you will be offended if you have had a pulse at some point over the last fifteen years. Is it still ''freaking hilarious?'' YES.
* Most Korean webtoons, but especially [[Noblesse]] is awesome. It is filled with extremely [[Badass]] actions who are responsible for many cool fights, AMAZING art style and [[The Beautiful Elite|very VERY attractive]] male characters, fascinating story that picks up quickly, and has a very good balance between humor and action.
* [[Bug
* For [[Tropers/Fashionist State|this troper]], ''[[Elf Only Inn]]'' was an instant favourite, particularly regarding the comics before the [[Genre Shift]]. While cynical and hilarious at times, the main reason for this is that it captures [[Sturgeon's Law|90%]] of online roleplaying so well!
* Have any of you ever heard of ''[[Union of Heroes]]''? No, you probably haven't, as it is a Germany-based photocomic. And yet, it is awesome. It is currently the only webcomic I have found that takes a superhero theme and plays it straight. The photomanipulated special effects are seamless, and the story has me hooked. It is a little simplistic, but that's part of its charm. The action sequences are very well done. If you can forgive some awkward dialogue that results from translation from German, and you like superheroes, I can guarantee you will not regret giving ''[[Union of Heroes]]'' a shot.
